Galderma expands Cetaphil’s Nourishing Line with new body care innovations, delivering clinically proven glow through advanced barrier science

  • Developed specifically for sensitive skin, the Nourishing & Hydrating Lotion and Cream combine hyaluronic acid and skin-essential lipids to strengthen the skin barrier while delivering clinically proven glow.

  • Builds on the successful launch of the Cetaphil Nourishing Oil-to-Foam facial Cleanser, extending the Nourishing Line to body care.

  • Supported by clinical and consumer testing of the Nourishing & Hydrating Lotion, 92% of users reported their skin felt softer, smoother, and more radiant after just one use.

MIAMI, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Galderma today announced that Cetaphil, the dermatologist-recommended brand trusted by millions with sensitive skin, is expanding its science-backed Nourishing line with the launch of the Nourishing & Hydrating Lotion and Nourishing & Hydrating Cream. Developed specifically for sensitive skin, these new body care innovations are powered by advanced hydration and barrier science to replenish essential skin lipids, help support and restore the skin barrier, and deliver proven glow as a visible sign of healthier-looking skin.

Sensitive skin is more prone to lipid deficiency, which can weaken the skin barrier and lead to moisture loss, dryness, roughness, and increased susceptibility to irritation. Aging and everyday environmental stressors can further deplete these essential lipids, making replenishment critical to maintaining healthy, resilient skin. Consumers are increasingly seeking healthy, glowing skin across face and body, and Cetaphil is meeting that need through clinically developed barrier science that nourishes the skin beyond the surface.

The new Nourishing & Hydrating Lotion and Cream represent the next evolution of Cetaphil’s Nourishing line, bringing the same technology-driven approach to body care formulations. Backed by clinical and consumer testing, the Nourishing & Hydrating Lotion delivers visible results from the very first use.

“The success of our Nourishing Oil-to-Foam facial Cleanser reinforced the consumer demand for body care rooted in skin barrier science. As we developed the next evolution of the Cetaphil’s Nourishing line, we focused on addressing one of the underlying contributors to dry, sensitive skin—surface lipid depletion. By combining ingredients like hyaluronic acid, lipids, flaxseed oil, and vitamin E in targeted formulations, we created products that not only provide long-lasting hydration, but also help replenish essential skin lipids, strengthen the skin barrier and support healthier-looking skin.”

JP YORK, PHD DIRECTOR, U.S. MEDICAL AFFAIRS, DERMATOLOGICAL SKINCARE, GALDERMA

Rather than simply moisturizing the skin’s surface, the Nourishing line delivers targeted nourishment through advanced ingredient technology tailored to different hydration needs. In consumer assessment results, 79% agreed their skin looked more glowy after just one use. Specifically, for the cream, 98% agreed their skin felt and looked less dry and more hydrated with consistent use*.

“Our goal was to formulate body moisturizers that go beyond surface-level hydration. For people with sensitive skin, the ability to nourish while maintaining the skin barrier is critical, making these formulas with carefully selected ingredients is an important advancement over traditional body moisturizers.”

DR. AARON FARBERG DERMATOLOGIST AND MOHS SURGEON, BAYLOR SCOTT & WHITE HEALTH (U.S.)

A new approach to nourishing body care for sensitive skin Cetaphil’s Nourishing & Hydrating Lotion and Nourishing & Hydrating Cream were developed to deliver targeted nourishment for different hydration needs while supporting the skin barrier with science-backed ingredients:

  • Nourishing & Hydrating Lotion instantly replenishes surface skin lipids for clinically proven glow, healthier-looking skin while providing up to 48-hours of hydration. Powered by Hyaluronic Acid, Lipids, and Flaxseed Oil, the lightweight, oil-infused formula helps retain moisture, soothe skin, and support the skin barrier for lasting hydration and visible radiance.

  • Nourishing & Hydrating Cream provides rich, long-lasting nourishment for normal to very dry skin with 72-hour hydration and proven glow. Formulated with Lipids and Vitamin E, the fast-absorbing cream deeply replenishes moisture while helping support and restore the skin barrier, leaving skin healthier-looking, smoother, and deeply hydrated. Both the lotion and the cream are hypoallergenic, fragrance-free, alcohol-free, paraben-free, and developed specifically for sensitive skin.

The Cetaphil Nourishing & Hydrating Lotion and Cetaphil Nourishing & Hydrating Cream are available now at major retailers nationwide and online at Cetaphil.com.

Starting Small, Growing Naturally: Beauty Factory Proven Excellence

Starting Small, Growing Naturally: Beauty Factory Proven Excellence

While entrepreneurship sparks the dreams of many, a few remarkable stories stand out, showcasing how grit and ingenuity can overcome a lack of resources. Beauty Factory is more than just a skincare brand; it symbolizes resilience and innovation. With only five Omani riyals, her founder started an inspiring journey that expanded into a vibrant line of natural and organic beauty products.

“With just five riyals, I created my first product—a hydrating night cream that gives skin a soft glow. This was the start of a journey filled with challenges and growth. Through continuous research and experimentation, I expanded into a range of natural and organic skincare products for different skin types. The biggest hurdles were sourcing quality ingredients and promoting the brand on a limited budget, but driven by passion and creativity, I overcame these obstacles and built a loyal, supportive customer base,” Muna bint Ahmed Al Balushi said, Chief Executive Officer of The Beauty Factory.

She is a passionate supporter of natural and organic care and believes that true beauty starts from within. Her journey began in 2012, when she started making skincare products at home for family and friends. By 2014, she opened her first store. A modest start that quickly expanded into three locations and a beauty salon.

Beauty Factory crafts natural and organic solutions that address skin concerns without relying on chemicals. Many people mistakenly believe that natural and organic mean the same thing, but she is passionate about educating her customers by clarifying that not all natural products qualify as organic.

Muna explains what each product signifies: “Organic and non-organic products share many ingredients and effects. The main difference is purity, as organic products are made from ingredients grown and processed under strict standards, free from chemicals. Products from organic methods protect the environment and skin by avoiding chemical impurities like pesticides, which can be found in non-organic products. The key distinction lies in their cultivation and processing methods, impacting environmental and skin health. However, natural products contain natural ingredients, but this does not necessarily mean that they were grown or prepared according to organic standards. They may also be processed with artificial ingredients or preservatives.”

The newest product in the Beauty Factory lineup is a customized soap for children crafted with breast milk. Muna was inspired by her desire to provide a natural, safe product for children’s sensitive skin. After noticing a lack of suitable products that combine effectiveness with trusted natural ingredients, she considered harnessing the properties of breast milk, which is rich in nutrients and antibacterial components, to offer a unique and beneficial experience. “Being one of the few in Oman who produce this type of soap made me feel a strong sense of responsibility to deliver an innovative product that reflects high quality and special care for children.” She said.

Beauty Factory products integrate beauty and therapy. The therapeutic aspect targets specific skin issues, while the cosmetic part improves overall skin appearance and health. Organic ingredients such as aloe vera, lavender oil, and coconut oil work to soothe inflammation, hydrate the skin, and reinforce its natural barrier against environmental stressors. They also help care for sensitive skin, reduce dark spots, and address early signs of aging.

“The products suit all categories, from those with sensitive skin to children and men, helping to raise awareness about the importance of choosing safe ingredients and avoiding harmful substances. With growing interest in natural self-care, society has become more conscious of healthy lifestyles and balanced beauty. In the Gulf region, there is a strong focus on natural ingredients specially designed to protect the skin from hot and humid climates, providing effective and healthy care that meets daily needs.” She added.

Since creativity is core to Beauty Factory’s identity, Muna successfully developed a sidr-based product that addresses hair concerns in an innovative way. Instead of using sidr as a traditional liquid mask, she turns it into a solid soap. This choice was motivated by her goal to extend the benefits of sidr beyond just hair care. Known for its deep-cleansing and scalp-strengthening properties, sidr offers powerful natural benefits. Presenting it in solid form allows for daily use on both skin and hair. By shaping sidr into a solid soap, she offers a modern twist on a traditional ingredient, creating a unique experience that enhances the health of skin and hair while preserving traditional techniques through innovation.

Adherence to quality standards is a fundamental principle Muna believes in, achieved through precise manufacturing methods that maintain each product’s purity and effectiveness. To address the challenge of maintaining high quality without synthetic preservatives, the company uses natural preservative oils that provide excellent and safe protection.

“A product can arise from a story or idea by identifying a real need and turning it into a tangible solution through careful ingredient selection and ongoing experimentation. Each product embodies personal experience and a thorough understanding of customer needs. For example, the Maknoon Oman Collection features scented soaps that narrate the homeland’s story through fragrances inspired by its regional diversity—ranging from roses and frankincense to oud, dried lime, sidr, sandalwood, saffron, and sea breeze—creating a comprehensive sensory experience of Oman’s identity.” She shared.

With a keen eye for details, Muna is fully dedicated to her brand. She values the meaningful conversations with loyal customers who are crucial to her success. “I find happiness in helping others discover the great benefits of natural products.” She said.
